Add Virtual Currency

If you need to use the Tapjoy virtual currency service, please fill in the relevant content according to the guide below. If you do not intend to use the Tapjoy virtual currency service, filling in any content will have no actual impact.

1. After the application is created, click on the upper right corner to enter the selection application, click Monetization → Virtual Currency → Create Virtual Currency.En-3.jpg

2. Enter the interface for creating virtual currency and fill in the information.tapjoy_en_4.jpg

  • Choose a currency hosting model:
    • Tapjoy Managed:
      • Developers can use Tapjoy's server to store the user's currency amount. This is a free service provided by Tapjoy for all developers who integrate the Tapjoy SDK, which saves the back-end work that usually needs to store user currency data for the App.
    • Self Managed:                                                            
      • Developers need to use their own servers to process the user's currency balance. This method allows you to better control the virtual currency, but it also means that the developer is fully responsible for the back-end work of storing and processing currencies for all users.

        Note: After creating virtual currency, you will not be allowed to delete it. Learn More.
  • Platform: iOS or Android.
  • Currency Name: Name the virtual currency, such as diamonds, gold coins, etc.
  • Currency Usage: You can customize the description of currency usage.
  • Exchange Rate: The exchange rate defines the amount of virtual currency that users receive for every dollar you earn through Tapjoy. Virtual currency does not support decimal values, and decimal rewards will be rounded to the nearest whole number. The recommended exchange rate is equal to or higher than $1 = 100.
  • Initial Balance: This represents the initial balance of the virtual currency that users have when they start using your app.
  • Does you app allow users to purchase any real world system of payment? : Misrepresentation (deliberate or otherwise) is a violation of the Tapjoy Terms of Services and will result in non-payment of earnings. No exceptions will be made.
  • Maturity Setting on the ads:
    • Everyone: Strictest filter. Only ads rated for everyone
    • Low: Includes ads rated Low Maturity and Everyone, but not Medium, High, or Mature
    • Medium: Includes ads rated Medium Maturity, Low, and Everyone, but not High or Mature
    • High: Includes ads rated High Maturity, Medium, Low, and Everyone, but not Mature

  • Fixed Reward for Video(Optional): A fixed amount of rewards can be set for rewarded videos.
